The n. f. Lyceum.

A large audience gathered at the Metho-
dist church lyceum last evening. f. J.
Churchill, president of the society pre-
sided, with Miss Sadie Fisher, the newly
secretary, present and officiating as such.
The programme previously announced
was not strictly carried out on account of
the absence of some who we're to have
have taken part. After prayer and sing
ing the audience was favored with an
instrumental solo by Mrs. Curtiss, after
which u choir of children under the direc-
ton of Prof. Thomas sang a beautiful
selection. w. P. Carroll gave a descrip
ton of a visit to Mount Vernon together
with some remarks about the life and
character of Washington. After a short
recess, a duet by Prof. and Mrs. Thomas
was well rendered. Miss Ethel Rishel
then recited very effectively ''Bingen on
the Rhine and was followed BY Miss
May Tuttle with an instrumental solo.
Pierce Marksville then recited in his usual
happy style a couple of his humorous
selections, and was followed by Rev. D. L.
RAIDER a short talk on interesting subjects.
which closed the programme. All of the
participants were warmly applauded,

A Bad Affair.

Quite a sensation has been created on
the quiet by the fact that a certain couple
who were married in this vicinity not
long ago were not of legal age-at least
the girl was not, and that in order to get
a marriage license the prospective hus-
band made an affidavit hat the girl was
over 20 years of age. No names need be
mentioned. but from the county clerk
records and the statement of the preacher
who performed the ceremony there is no
doubt but that the marriage was illegal
and therefore voidable in law, but that
the crime of perjury was committed in
obtaining the marriage license. Instead
OF being 81 years of age, the girl was not
Is. and at that age even the consent of
the parents or guardian would not make
the marriage a legal one. 1t should be
explained here that unless the man is at
least Is years of age and the girl l6 they
could not marry with or without the con-
sent of the parents or guardian; if they
are over that age and either less than p,
then the written consent of parents or
guardian is necessary.

Information received In Cheyenne yes
terday was to the effect that the mill and
smelter will soon be in active operation
and that affairs at Silver Crown begin al
ready to assume the appearance of a
mining camp in full bloom. There is
little donbt but hat there is plenty of
good paying ore in the hills, but the troub-
lie has always been how to work it in or
der that 1t may be made to pay. Now
that the mills are about ready to begin
operations it would seem that the time is
close at hand when the long expected min
ing boom may come at Silver Crown, and
with it a boom for Cheyenne.

RAMS EY AGAIN.
Proves to be a Fugitive With Another
Mans Wife.

The LEADER has for two mornings in
succession mentioned the fact that one
James Ramsey alias w. II. Parker, had
bsen arrested and was in custody on the
charge of obtaining $35 in board from A..
Nichols, proprietor ofthe Simmons house,
by means of false representations-he
having produced a bogus telegram in re-
lation TO some money which was about to
be sent to him and on the strength of
which the board was obtained. yester-
day morning THE LEADER contained an
account of the postponement of the pre-
liminary examination in his case for
ten days. also the statement that he
claimed to be a detective and that he had
given bail in the sum of$2OO for his ap-
pearance at the proper time.
Night before last County Attorney
Stoll, having serious misgivings about
Ramsey, requested Sheriff Sharpless to
telegraph to Alma, Ia, where Ramsey
claimed to have resided and held the of
flee of city marshal, and ascertain some
thing about the man. Mr.. Sharpless did
so and very soon the answer came back:
Hold Ramsey; he is wanted here for
embezzlement and for clipping with another
man s WIFE,
1t should be stated that when Ramsey
made his advent in Cheyenne he was ac-
c%ompanied by a woman who was regis
tered at the hotel as his wife, and this
woman who has been in town ever since,
has assumed the role of Mrs. Ramsey.
Whether or not Ramsey got a clue to the
receiving of the telegram or whether he
mistrusted that something was up is not
known, but certain it is that when an ac-
tive search was made for him yesterday
morning he was not to be found. This
search is still in progress with a good
prospect of his capture.
There are two very bad features about
the affair aside from the doings of the
man Ramsey himself. One is that A.
6. McGregor signed the bail bond as Sc
curity for Ramsey, and will be out 5000
unless he is caught, and the other is that
the woman is another mans wife-a Mrs.
Bradley-and that she leaves two small
children, both girls, aged 6 and 9 re-
spectively.

quarters when the Federal army made
their grand entry into Vicksburg. They
were a good wa Off when we first heard
their drums as they sounded the tum-
tum, and every ear was turned to the
quarter from whence this came to make
out what they were playing. Various
guesses were offered in that direction, but
were all given up, one by one, as the wind
lulled or shifted Inc the sounds got so
terribly mixed up hat not the most perfect
master Of music could say for a certainty
that they expressed any tune at all. At

Negotiating.

1t was stated last evening on excellent
authority that the Ancient Order of
United Workmen, through proper Off
cers, are negotiating for the purchase of a
piece of ground location not stated 66x
1872 feet, on which a two story brick or
stone building, covering the entire ground,
and to cost $4,000, IS to be erected at
once. The building. so far as tho first
story is concerned, will be divided into
four stores each 22xl32 feet, while in the
upper story there will be twenty-four
rooms, including the large hall.

Mr.. VIM. Westlake, stock raiser and
breeder of thoroughbred horses, living
near Avoca, Neb., was badly injured by
being thrown from a sulky. After using
numerous liniments and consulting phys
%icians, without being afforded any relief,
he obtained a bottle of Chamberlain
Pain Balm from the druggist at Avoca,
which he began using and noticed a
change for the better after a few applica-
tons; in two weeks he entirely recovered
the use of his arm. 1t is unequalled for
severe bruises and %sprains, rheumatism
and lame back. Sold by w. N. Hunt.

The Artesian Well.

1t should be explained in reference to
u prospective a~rtesian well that nearly
n year ago the pipe which it was decided
would have to be used was ordered by the
board of county commissioners, but on
account of the strikes the firm at Cincin.
natl, where it was ordered, had to shut
down, and although its works are now in
running order, the pipe ordered has not
as yet been supplied, and perhaps will not
be for some weeks. When this new pipe
arrives, work will be resumed, but it is
quite probable that the drill will be set to
work in a new place.

What the Fact Is.

THE LEADERS local took another
cruise yesterday in search of definite in
formation in regard to the rumored resig-
nation of Union Pacific officials, With
out explaining lust how and from whom
the information was obtained, it may be
stated that the following is about the true
fact in the matter: The designations of
superintendent Smith and Dickinson and
of General manager Galloway of the
Union Pacific have been rendered, but
have not and probably will not be
accepted.

The Episcopal Church.

Work is to be pushed on the new Epis-
copal church, and it will, of course, be
completed this season. A meeting of the
vestry was held yesterday in regard to
some matters connected with the compile
ton of the new church. 1t has been
decided to have the church heated by
steam, and the authorities will probably
make a contract with the same parties
who are to provide the capitol with heat
ing apparatus for that purpose. When
completed, the Episcopal church will be
the finest church of any denomination in
the territory.
